The highlight function puzzled me for a while. It turns out that it does do something here, but a flaw in the LL site design keeps us from seeing it. The highlight function should literally highlight posts in a different background color, but the graphical backgrounds used here have been covering up the effect.
To see how highlighting works, you can try this in a user style sheet. This example uses a border instead of a background change, that's the easiest way demonstrate. It can be handy to keep your place in a long thread while paging around.
For this site, only the first entry makes much of a difference. If works in the forum areas, it does not do much here in the blog area.
